Out troops aren't in iraq of 9/11?? What a crock of bull!! (Sorry but seriously)  Saddam had been in power for many many years before 9/11 and we didn't decide to go nuke some innocent civilians over there until after 9/11 and then its like ATTACK! Lets kill like they killed, except we're still losing lives, and we're losing money and losing respect in our government.

I said that Iraq and 9/11 were not related.  Obviously Bush has used 9/11 to further his agenda in Iraq and convinced people that the two are related.

Right.  Our troops are in Iraq only to secure the Bush families financial assets.  Nothing to do with 9/11.  Absolutely nothing.  No one can ever come up with a link between Sadam and 9/11 because there are none.

Oh my god, can you stop saying

I mean really I'm sure Bush is taking advantage of the situation for that but that's not the only flipping reason!

I wish I could believe that... But I can't.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's only reason.  Bush couldn't give a flying flip about the peoples freedom in Iraq.  We all know there's no weapons of mass destruction and Iraq had absolutely no ties with the events that occured on 9/11.  It's all about money.  It makes the world turn.

I think it is a big reason but I do not think its the only reason.    (first time I've been irritated in this thread)

Then what do you think another reason is that we're there?

Because our country was threatened and Bush doesn't know what to do about it so he jumped to go to Iraq because he feels he has to do something or the people will think he is doing nothing and wont vote for him again.

To this day, Bush hasn't been able to show even the slightest bit of evidence to prove that his suspicion of ties between Al Qaida and Iraq wes justified. He knew damn well what he did.

It sounds to me like you're irritated just because people won't agree with you...

I think the reasons for War etc are on a slightly more complex level.

Really? That's exactly what I think as well. Which is why I do not agree that the only reason Bush went to war is for the money.

No because I am not set on one way. I totally agree that money plays a part in it but people can't accept that that might not be the only reason.  Things usually happen for more then one reason.

..and Helping the Iraq people isnt one of them.

They do, because they must, but this is not a priority..merely a side objective which keeps Human Rights-organisations at bay.
